I thought this might have been the thing I'm looking for; relatively painless screencasting or sharing from a local (Linux) PC to another device on the network (e.g. Raspberry Pi + Big Screen TV). The use case isn't necessarily full motion video + audio, but more for business/conference room type use, where response time isn't wildly important, since it's something like a whiteboard.
Monitor-over-network would be great too, but not a requirement; I'm aware that solutions exist, but so far everything I've tried has been painfully clunky.
- betwixthewires 5y agoI'm still looking for a VLC plugin that let's you stream to VLC via UPNP/DLNA. If that existed you could basically turn any raspberry pi into a Chromecast using your distro of choice and VLC.
- MikusR 5y agoYou can do it using your distro of choice and KODI.
- betwixthewires 5y agoYeah and I used to use that, but it is a pain. If all you're doing is sending video from another device like you would with a Chromecast, all the features that come bundled in Kodi are bloat.
